This old barn belongs to some friends from
Tuckasegee which is not very far from Cullowhee. The owner
was storing fertilizer in the barn and I felt that the red
in the logo of the fertilizer bags made a strong color
statement against the muted tones of the rest of the scene.
The tires and galvanized tub were a still life painting
alone. The old hay rake wheel was doing a fine job of
holding open the door. You may can just make out a hornet's
nest under the eave.
The dark interior of the barn provides a nice element of
curiosity for the viewer. What else lies hidden and out of
view?
